I am a convict and get treated very poorly because i got bad food and drinks my bed that i sleep on a bed that is really uncomfortable. I do alot of hard labour basically all day.
When I got court I got clothes and this is what I got a suit, woollen jacket, waistcoat of Yellow or grey cloth, stockings, a pair of shoes, two shirts, a neck handkerchief and a woollen cap. I have shoes but no socks so it gets very uncomfortable. I look really untidy and smell. In my shoes because I no left or right shoe and have no socks I where this things called toe rags.
